2016 May Miracles

[busytulip]

Thank you all your support and kind words means so much.

Rainbow, so sorry to hear that your SPD has made an early showing. That's terrible.

kittiekat I'll be thinking of you for your follow-up scan. My sister had a similar thing happen and when she went back there was a healthy little bean in there just dancing away.

Pink, I've seen her 'on' but I don't think she has been posting. I hope she is doing okay.

Busy- I'm so sorry, but like the other ladies said miracles do happen. Hoping for the best on your next appointment.

Em- congrats on the scan and graduating to your ob. I got an appointment for the 12th week, in 4 weeks time.

Kittie- all the best on your next scan, I can't answer about the morning sickness. Today I'm 8 weeks and haven't had morning sickness.

Kittie - Good luck with your scan, Im sure you will see a lovely little heartbeat. Its normal not to see a foetal pole at 5 weeks. They only seen a sac and yolk sac at my 5+3 scan and then a foetal pole and heartbeat 2 weeks later at 7+2.

Busy - so so sorry to hear about your loss But it sounds like you, your OH, and your family is incredible strong and you have a great mind set about it. Keep hanging in there.

Kittie - FXed for you on Monday, I hope you find ways to keep yourself busy this weekend and time moves quickly for you

Busy I'm so sorry. I want this so very badly for all of us. I wish this wasn't happening to you. You're a strong mama and I know you will be blessed with another little one.

Has anyone tried acupressure bands for morning sickness?

 

[pinkpassion]

I tried the seabands.. didn't do anything except hurt my arms :/

 

[pinkpassion]

And I was super bummed about it because I'm so sick and would love something to help and also they weren't cheap!

Hi Pink,
I've tried candied/crystallized ginger. It's more concentrated than Gin Gins and ended my nuasea immediately. I'm so glad I've found something that works. The only trade off is that ginger is strongly flavored and not something I would normally eat. It's a little spicy too. Also I haven't had any vomiting yet and I think it would burn if it came right out. Sorry TMI

 

[Flossie_Aus]

The bands didn't work for me either, they just made me feel claustrophobic. I threw the freshly squeezed apple and ginger juice right up as well. Doctor has me on Maxalon for my bad days but the best thing for me has been a boring bland diet of chip sandwiches. So unhealthy, but I was just happy to keep something down!

 

[Flossie_Aus]

Speaking of unhealthy... I read today that my baby is currently developing his/her brain, and now I feel super guilty about all the crap I've been eating. I'm trying to think of something nourishing we could eat for dinner that actually sounds appetising but I'm coming up empty. Anyone else?

 

[Smanderson]

Thanks ladies sounds like the sea bands are a waste of time. Where did you get the candied ginger? I've heard peppermint helps and also sniffing a lemon?

 

[hereishoping]

Really struggling today ladies. Got my first early scan tomorrow and the anxiety of that coupled with tiredness and a very unhappy 3 year old have left me in a sorry state

 

[busytulip]

Thinking of you hereishoping
Hopefully your 3y/o goes down for a nap and you are able to recharge. Everything is made worse when you are tired.

 

[sugargully]

My grocery has candied ginger in the healthy bulk food isle. If it wasn't there I was going to look in the baking section or by dried fruit.

 

[sugargully]

Hereishoping wishing you a better afternoon and a restful night.

 

[Smanderson]

Thanks sugargully I'll check out the supermarkets

Hereishoping sorry you have had a tough day, hope your feeling a bit better now and not long to go now, just a sleep and a little wait till you can see your little pickle wiggling around x
